To help with using the software is low light environments LightFactory can now be switched into a dark style mode.

You can switch this mode on and off in the appearance tab of the system properties.

New Gobo, Colour and Item picker

The new system is also touch friendly and can be scrolled using touch and drag gestures.

Option to set the video and audio level for each cue

When putting video and audio files into a cue you can now set the video intensity and the audio volume. Cross fades between cues will also work with this setting so that a audio file can fade from one level to another.

Per step timing on simple chase effects

The simple chase effect can now be switched to a "Timing per step" mode. In this mode each step of the effect has its own timing parameters. The step time, fade time and fade out time can all be set independently for each step.
